From website: A medieval vaulted chamber etched by stout stone walls, afire with candle-style-ambience and warmed by the welcomed chatter of moorland travellers; there is truly no other pub quite like The Crypt. Add to the mix a hearty stock of Northumbrian ales – including our very own ‘Lord Crewe Brew’ on tap. Throw in a rather thoughtful selection of cracking wines. Top with a good few measures of highland whisky, then spice it up with a Geordie cocktail or two...and there we have it - the finest free house for miles around.
